Gillian

Rockfort is an ideal radioshow for lovers of French music - this Saturday they run a special on 60s singer Gillian Hill. called: I Was A Ye-Ye Girl.

David from Rockfort previews: "The programme revisits the Ye-Ye-era through tracks from French sixties girl singers like Françoise Hardy, France Gall and Stella, and the Rockfort team (joined by guest presenter Vanessa from Vanessa and the O's) will be talking to a very special guest, original Ye-Ye girl Gillian Hills, who was for a while billed as the new Brigitte Bardot, was wooed by playboy Roger Vadim, performed with Serge Gainsbourg, appeared in Blow Up with Jane Birkin and wrote and performed several (now highly sought after)60s classics. Gillian will be sharing her memories of the period and anecdotes from her own career.We'll be playing a few of Gillian's records (including an unreleased duet with Serge Gainsbourg) plus other girl records from the period, and Gillian will conlcude the show by reading a French poem of her own."

For Londoners, it's on 104.4 Resonance FM, otherwise you can listen on www.resonancefm.com, Saturday 2 Sept 12.30-13.30.
